WOMAN WALKS INTO DOLLAR TREE AND WORKS AN 8.5-HOUR SHIFT. SHE DOESN'T WORK THERE

The TikTok video commenting on this work-for-free day comes from creator Ugh Madison (@ugh_madison).

In this Dollar Tree experience, she started at 1pm and didn’t get approached by an actual worker until the end of her self-designed shift.

“I immediately got to work,” she notes at the start of her video. “I started sweeping the floors organizing the shelves and giving away dollar trees to my customers.”

She says, at one point, “After a couple of hours, I had to use the bathroom, but they had no toilet paper. So I bought some and made sure the bathroom was up to par with Dollar Tree’s standards before I got back to work.”

She notes that with about a half hour to go before closing, one of the workers approached her to ask if she needed anything. She then bought two $200 gift cards, gave one to each of her two “co-workers,” as she called them.

“Girl we need you at every dollar tree,” one commenter remarked. “This is the best one yet bc i feel like dollar tree are always so understaffed,” another observed.
